WyoLink, 1 sided conversations

[KG7JEV]

On the AMR dispatch channel 217 on the Fox Farm tower, I can only hear the ambulances for a brief moment, and cannot hear dispatch at all. All of the other channels come in just fine, so I'm assuming its not a setting issue. Suggestiosn anyone? I'm thinking maybe one side is not yet digital? I changed to audio type in FreeScan to "all" and this didn't change anything.

Thanks for the help.

that happens some times when you patch a anolog to digital,
the old dispatch is better than listening to 217 for now,

Its not an analog to digital patch issue, its a "behind the scenes" issue where the audio isn't router both ways. Basically, the entire patch wasn't "wired" all the way.

This is sometimes done for demostrations, as simple as a programming/setup error, or the audio is one way (we had a similar issue in reverse...it was setup for console audio but not field audio)

A true patch will be two-way either via a console patch or a hard patch. We did it all the time from a system similar to wyolink between multiple conventional repeater and simplex channels.
